Russia’s nuclear power corporation, Rosatom, accused the Ukrainian military on Sunday of launching an unprecedented series of attacks on the Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station and said three staff members were hurt, one seriously.
In a statement on its website, Rosatom said radiation levels at the plant, Europe’s largest facility with six reactors, were normal and there was no serious damage.
Russian troops seized the plant in the first weeks of the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Each side has since accused the other of attacking the plant and surrounding areas and risking a nuclear disaster.
